Comments/Questions: Bob,
When you were at the Chesapeake VA seminar you mentioned that a Hall effect
sensor could be used with your load meter in stead of the shunt. What hall
effect sensor do you recommend?
You might also offer them on you web site along with the loadmeter as you
do with the shunts.
Mark,
There's a little more to it than simply hooking the sensor assembly
to the instrument . . . there's some calibration to be done.
One sensor of choice would be the Honeywell CSNX25 described
in the data package at:
http://www.aeroelectric.com/Mfgr_Data/Misc/Honeywell/CSXN_Series_Current_Transducers.pdf
It needs a power supply and an etched circuit board along with
some calibration circuitry to mate it to the instrument I have.
Your suggestion is interesting. I have some plans for incorporating
the instrument into another OBAM aircraft product and it would be
an interesting added feature to include a current display with
a hall-effect sensor.
I'm meeting with some partners next Monday and will add this idea
to the list of projects to be considered. Thanks!
Bob . . .
